Your presupposition that I'm talking about perpetrators of abuse is also completely flawed. Its why real conversations are so difficult these days, because everyone is so quick to label other people their sworn enemy unless they are instantly lockstep with their ideals and practices. Believe it or not, there are huge numbers of people that simply haven't gone through the work to understand every issue in the world like so many on this site seem to have achieved. There's a process involved for most of us mortals that requires time, effort, patience, and humility on both sides of the conversation in order to gain understanding.
To summarize...
I agree that abusers must be met with a level of force to correct society.
I don't agree that such force must always seek to dehumanize the perpetrators.
I think people can and do change, even abusers.
I think the rush to create enemies is causing more damage in society than it needs to.
I think a huge % of the population has no established position on many issues, including this one. These people are not enemies. Being antagonistic and annoying is not a great approach if the goal is to win these people over.
I think more than anything, I just have a huge problem with dehumanization in general, even of abusers. It doesn't seem like a rational approach, and I don't care which "side" is instigating it. Its a losing strategy.
